Marketing Mix Analysis

Marketing mix is the important factor of the modern age to fulfill the Organization’s goal. It is also the set of some controllable and uncontrollable tactical marketing tools that influence customer response. The major task of marketing management is to blend together the elements of the marketing mix in such way that they fulfill the need of selected target markets. The set of elements are product, price, promotion and place, but the new concept, people, physical evidence and process are added as the elements of the marketing mix

An effective marketing program blends all of the marketing mix elements (product, price, promotion and place) into a coordinate program design to achieve the company’s marketing objectives by delivering value of consumers. The marketing mix constitutes the company’s tactical tool kit for establishing strong positioning in target and that is why, marketing mix is the set of controllable marketing tools the firm uses to pursue its marketing objectives in the target market.

The particular mixture of marketing techniques, pricing, packaging and advertising, used to promote the sales of a product, marketing mix is also known as the four Ps. 4 P’s or very recent 7 P’s stand for

Product

Price

Place

Promotion

And addition elements are

People

Physical evidence

Process

The 7 P’s, the marketing mix is used to market product of service, this is done by using the 7 P’s to establish what the product is, the price, the place and promotion, customer, products physical evidence and process.

By the combining of 7 P’s marketing managers want to achieve a grater result, from there combination then each of the individual effect of following products-this is the goods or service that the company provides. However it is more than product or service itself, it is also the benefits that meet.

The marketing mix model (also most commonly known as the 4 P’s) can be used by marketers as a tool to assist in implementing the marketing strategy.

Marketing manager’s use this method to attempt generate the optional response in the target market by blending for variable in an optimal way it is important to understand that the marketing mix principles are controllable variable. The marketing mix can be adjusted on a frequent basis to meet the changing needs of the target group and the other dynamics of the marketing environment.

Product

We define product as anything that can be offered to a market for attention, acquisition, use or consumption and that might satisfy a want or need. Product includes more than just tangible goods. Broadly defined, products include physical objects, service events, persons, place, organization, idea or mixes of these entities. However there are no bad products anymore in today’s highly competitive markets that he perceives as bad. Therefore the question or product has become; does the organization create what its intended customers want? Define the characteristics of your product or service that meets the need of your customers.

Product may be described in following ways

Product Varity: Marketers present their product in different ways.

Product Quality: Product quality consists of the ability to satisfy customer’s needs and wants as well as the ability of a product to perform its function; it includes the product’s overall durability, reliability, precision, ease of operation and repair and other valued attributes. Products quality has two dimension that are level and consistency.

Product Design: style simply describes the appearance of a product. Design is a larger concept than style.

Product Feature: A product can be offered with varying features. The company can create higher level models by adding more features. Features are competitive tools for differentiating the company’s program. Being the first producer to introduce a needed and valued new feature is one of the most effective ways to complete

Brand Name of the product: A good name can add greatly to a product’s success. It should suggest something about the product’s benefit and quality. It should be easy to pronounce, recognize and remember. In addition to design or a combination of these, that identifies the market or seller of a product or service.

Product Packaging: Packaging involves designing and product the container of wrapper for a product. The activities of designing and producing the container for a product.

Return: It refers to provision of defective product back to the producer. It is better for a company that there are present of provisions of return defective product.

Price

Price refers to the amount of money charged for product or service or the sum of the values that consumers exchange for the benefits of having or using the product or service. How much are the intended customers willing to pay? Here we decide on a pricing strategy- do not let it just happen! Even if you decide not to ask (enough) money for a product or service, you must realize that this is a conscious decision and forms part of the pricing strategy. Although competing on price is as old as mankind, the consumer is often still sensitive for price discount and special offers. Price has also an irrational side: something that is expensive must be good. Permanently competing on price is for many companies not a very sensible approach.

List price: The price which is written on the product.

Discount price: discount is a price reduction to buyers who pay their bills promptly. A typical example is “2/10, net 30” which means that although payment is due written 30 days, the buyer can deduct 2% if the bills is paid within 10 days.

Allowance: Allowance is another type of reduction from the list price. It refers to the promotional money paid by manufacturers to retailers in return for an agreement to feature the manufacturer’s products in some ways.

Payment Period: what are the processes on way of payment is it flexible for customer or not? It should be flexible for customers.

Credit Terms: Is there provision of credit term? If any then what are characteristics of that.

Promotion

Promotion means activities that communicate the merits of the product and persuade target customers to buy it. For a example, suppose that “Ispahani Tea” spends more than 1 million each year on advertising to tell consumers about the company and its product. Dealership sales people assist potential buyer and persuade them that “Ispahani Tea” is the best tea for them. “Ispahani Tea” and its dealers offer special promotions like sales promotion, cash rebates, low financial rate etc as added purchase incentive. Marketers use the normal promotion tools that advertising, sales promotion, personal selling, public relations and direct marketing to reach customers. They are described in following manner:

a) Sales promotion: sales promotion is any paid of non-personal presentation and promotion of ideas, goods or services by and identified Marketing management must make 4 (four) important decisions when developing advertising program that are setting advertising objectives, setting advertising budgets, developing advertising strategy and evaluating advertising campaigns.

Public Relation: Another major mass promotion tool is public relations that building good relations with company’s various publics by obtaining favorable publicity, building up a good corporate image and handling or handling off unfavorable rumors, stories and events.

Place includes company activities that make the product available to target customers. It may be described in following manner:

Channel: The distribution channel moves goods and services from producers to customers. It overcomes the major times, place and possession gaps that separate goods and services from those who would use them. It helps to complete transaction in such way-information, promotion, contact, matching, negotiation etc.

Coverage: producer’s product should be cover target market area. The customer in target market may be got the product easily.

Assortment: Product should be assorting some of various categories so that producer transport it easily and customer use it easily or in comfortable

d) Inventory: inventory levels also affect customer satisfaction. The major program is to maintain the delicate balance between carrying too much inventory and carrying too little. Any inventory decision management must balance the costs of carrying larger inventories against resulting sells and

e) Transportation: Marketers need to make an interest in their company’s transportation decisions. The choice of transportation carries affects the pricing of products.

We can mention that it holds that the four Ps concepts take the seller’s view of the market, not the buyer’s view. From the buyer’s viewpoint, in this age of connectedness, the four Ps might be better described as the four Cs. Robert Lauterborn suggest that the sellers four Ps correspond to the customer four Cs.

Will marketers see themselves selling a product, customers see themselves as price; they want the product and service to be a conveniently available as possible. Finally, they want two ways to first think through the four Cs and then build the four Ps on that platform.

People

Many service depend on direct interaction between customers and a firm’s employees or talking to call center staff strongly influence the customer’s perception quality of service. Service quality is often assessed based on customer’s interactions with four line staff and successful service firms devote significant effort to recruiting, training, motivation these employees.

Physical Evidence

The environment in which the service is delivered and where the firm and customer interact and any tangible components that facilities performance or communication of service. The appearance of buildings, landscaping , vehicles, interior furnishing equipments, staff members, signs, printed materials and other visible cause all provide tangible evidence carefully, as it can have a profound impact on customer’s impressions.

Process

The annual procedures, mechanisms and flow of activities by which the service is delivered, the service delivery and operating systems. The actual delivery steps that the customer’s experiences or the operational flow of service also give customers evidence on which to judge the service. Some services are very complex, requiring the customer of follow a complicated and extensive series of actions to complete the process. Badly designed progress often lead to slow, bureaucratic and ineffective services performance and result in dissatisfied customers. Similarly, poor processes make it difficult for front line staff to do their jobs well, resulting in low productivity and increased likelihood of service failure.
